When my son was born he was like a little hungry caterpillar! He ate nonstop and grew so fast; changing and developing so quickly! He hasn’t stopped since! He always reminded my hubby and I of a hungry caterpillar turning into a gorgeous butterfly. Naturally he loves bugs, worms and other critters. I prefer to handle the crocheted ones versus the real ones! So, I made him his very own caterpillar to snuggle and play with!

As I was making his caterpillar, and developing the pattern, I was other thinking about what awesome gifts they would make for teachers, libraries, baby showers, and of course - birthday gifts! These little caterpillars can be made in an endless combination of colors to match nursery décor, characters from various books, or in a person's favorite colors. In fact I am making one for my niece who will turn three in May to match a book that I have for her too.

I hope you enjoy this new FREE pattern, and make many wonderful caterpillars of your own!

Please share your amazing caterpillars! I would love to see your color combinations!

Hello, and welcome to my blog!! My name is Britteny. I am a wife to an amazing husband and a stay at home mom to two beautiful children. I taught myself to crochet whilst pregnant for my daughter. However, I intend for this blog to focus on not only crochet, but also my life as a stay at home mom, and homeschooling my children (a decision I made due to my local school system - and my elementary education degree). I hope you like it, and feel free to comment!
